6.7.3. Remote DAS Configuration

Figure 6-5: APICOM User Interface for DAS Configuration
Once a DAS configuration is edited (which can be done offline and without interrupting DAS data
collection), it is conveniently uploaded to the instrument and can be stored on a computer for later review,
alteration or documentation and archival. Refer to the APICOM manual for details on these procedures.
The APICOM user manual (Teledyne Instruments part number 039450000) is included in the APICOM
installation file, which can be downloaded at http://www.teledyne-api.com/software/apicom/. It is
recommended that you start by downloading the default DAS configuration, getting familiar with its
command structure and syntax conventions, and then altering a copy of the original file offline before
uploading the new configuration.
CAUTION
Whereas the editing, adding and deleting of DAS channels and parameters of one
channel through the front-panel touchscreen can be done without affecting the
other channels, uploading an DAS configuration script to the analyzer through its
communication ports will erase all data, parameters and channels by replacing
them with the new DAS configuration. Backup of data and the original DAS
configuration is advised before attempting any DAS changes.
